I forgive you

for not being who

I thought

you should be…

I forgive me

for not being

what you wished

me to be…

I forgive both of us

for trying to be

who we were not…

In this moment,

I honor the heart of 

who you are,

and also honor

the heart of me…

May we cherish

in each other

all we created, 

and respect our efforts

even where we failed.

May every day

hereafter

bring nothing but joy

into every day

of your life…

Always.
